Question

My client made a $20 K cash donation. She insists that can split her donation over the next 2 years. I researched and don't see where she can do that.

      Nope, if she had donated 10k on 12/31 and the other 10k on Jan 1, then shed be able to split it over 2 years.

        Maybe the amount she can deduct in the first year is limited by her AGI.

            Ask her to provide you with the law she insists exists.

              @strongsilence Does it matter? It's all a current year contribution.

              The more I know the more I don’t know.

                Good morning,

                That is what we know. I thought she might have been confused about deductions related to a DAF.
